Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of photovoltaic installation, and in particular to the connection structure between photovoltaic modules and photovoltaic brackets. Background Technology

[0002] When installing photovoltaic panels, the location of the photovoltaic support frame is usually determined, then the photovoltaic support frame is installed, and finally the photovoltaic panels are installed onto the photovoltaic support frame.

[0003] In existing technologies, when installing photovoltaic modules onto photovoltaic brackets, the spacing between the photovoltaic modules needs to be confirmed beforehand, and then multiple bolts are used to stably connect the photovoltaic modules to the brackets. However, there are still some problems that need to be improved when connecting photovoltaic modules to photovoltaic brackets: 1. Due to manufacturing precision issues and human handling during installation, the spacing between photovoltaic modules may not meet requirements, necessitating adjustments. However, since the modules are connected by numerous bolts, adjusting them requires disassembling many bolts, which consumes a lot of time and reduces efficiency.

[0004] 2. When installing photovoltaic modules, it is necessary to manually move the photovoltaic modules from their storage location to the target photovoltaic bracket, which is time-consuming. Even if delivery is carried out by delivery vehicles or other equipment, it is still necessary to manually move them onto the vehicle, arrange them properly, and then move them from the vehicle to the photovoltaic bracket. The process is complicated and further consumes time, resulting in low installation efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a connection structure between photovoltaic modules and photovoltaic brackets that makes it easier to adjust the position of photovoltaic modules and to achieve higher efficiency during installation. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a connection structure between photovoltaic modules and photovoltaic brackets to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: The connection structure between the photovoltaic module and the photovoltaic bracket includes three support frames arranged at intervals in sequence, with grooves on the upper surface of the support frames; and connectors including a base plate and a mounting plate, with a slider on the lower surface of the base plate that is adapted to the grooves. The three support frames are supported on the lower surface of the base plate, and the base plate and the support frames are detachably connected. The mounting plate is inclinedly set on the upper surface of the base plate, and the photovoltaic module is installed on the side facing away from the base plate. The grooves extend along the intersection line of the plane containing the lower surface of the mounting plate and the plane containing the upper surface of the base plate.

[0008] In some embodiments, the support frame includes a support plate and a plurality of columns. The tops of the plurality of columns are disposed on the lower surface of the support plate and are arranged sequentially at intervals along the long side of the support plate. The upper surface of the support plate is provided with a sliding groove that extends along the long side of the support plate. The bottom plate is disposed on the upper surface of the support plate, and its lower surface abuts against and fits against the upper surface of the support plate.

[0009] The connection between the column and the ground via bolts or direct insertion into the ground is existing technology and will not be elaborated further.

[0010] In some embodiments, multiple protruding plates are provided on both sides of the two support plates located at both ends. The multiple protruding plates on both sides of the same support plate correspond one to one. The protruding plates are provided with tightening bolts, one end of which faces the support plate and is axially perpendicular to the side of the support plate.

[0011] In some embodiments, a rubber plate is provided on the end face of the tightening bolt facing the support plate.

[0012] In some embodiments, connecting plates are provided on both sides of the mounting plate. The upper surface of the connecting plate is on the same plane as the upper surface of the mounting plate, and the two end faces are on the same plane as the two end faces of the mounting plate. The connecting plates are connected to both sides of the photovoltaic panel by multiple bolts.

[0013] In some embodiments, the upper surface of the base plate is provided with a groove and is adapted to the base plate. The groove is opened along the extension direction of the vertical slide. The front and rear sides of one end of the base plate are connected to the two opposite sides of one end of the storage groove by a pivot. When the mounting plate is rotated into the storage groove, the upper surface of the mounting plate and the upper surface of the base plate are located on the same plane, and the connecting plate is displaced into the storage groove.

[0014] In some embodiments, a support platform is provided at the end of the storage slot away from the connection between the mounting plate and the base plate. The upper surface of the base plate and the bottom wall surface of the storage slot are parallel to the upper surface of the support platform. When the mounting plate is rotated into the storage slot, the upper surface of the support platform abuts against and fits against the lower surface of the mounting plate.

[0015] In some embodiments, a plurality of removable diagonal braces are provided between the side of the mounting plate facing the base plate and the bottom wall of the groove.

[0016] In some embodiments, the mounting plate has multiple storage slots on the side facing the base plate that are adapted to the diagonal braces. One end of each diagonal brace is connected to the two side walls opposite to the storage slots via a pivot, and the other end of the diagonal brace is detachable from the bottom of the slot.

[0017] In some embodiments, the other end of the diagonal brace is provided with a stabilizing plate, and the bottom wall of the groove is provided with a plurality of connecting hole groups. The number of the plurality of connecting hole groups is the same as the number of diagonal braces, and they are arranged sequentially at intervals along the direction perpendicular to the two side walls of the groove. Each connecting hole group includes two connecting holes, and the stabilizing plate is provided with two connecting bolts. The diagonal brace is connected to the connecting hole bolts on the bottom wall of the groove through the connecting bolts of the stabilizing plate.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: In this invention, a support frame supports the base plate and is slidably connected to the base plate. The mounting plate is then tilted and positioned on the upper side of the base plate, allowing the base plate to slide relative to the support frame along with the mounting plate and the photovoltaic panel. This facilitates easy position adjustment and avoids repeated handling of the photovoltaic panel, thereby improving installation efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0022] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that if terms such as "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer" appear to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the utility model product is in use, they are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0024] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used only for distinguishing descriptions and should not be interpreted as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0025] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "suspended" does not imply that the component must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0028] It should be understood that due to manufacturing precision issues and human handling during installation, the spacing between photovoltaic modules may not meet requirements, necessitating adjustments. However, since the modules are connected by numerous bolts, adjusting them requires removing many bolts, which consumes more time and reduces efficiency.

[0029] Furthermore, the installation of photovoltaic modules requires manual handling to move them from their storage location to the target photovoltaic bracket, which is time-consuming. Even when delivery is made by delivery vehicles or other equipment, manual handling is still required to load the modules onto the vehicles, arrange them properly, and then move them from the vehicles to the photovoltaic brackets. This process involves many steps, further consuming time and resulting in low installation efficiency.

[0030] To improve the above problems, this embodiment provides a connection structure between photovoltaic modules and photovoltaic brackets, which mainly includes connectors 2 and three support frames 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, three support frames 1 are arranged in sequence at intervals according to a pre-positioned direction. The upper surface of the support frame 1 is provided with a sliding groove 111. Specifically, the support frame 1 includes a support plate 11 and multiple columns 12. The tops of the multiple columns 12 are located on the lower surface of the support plate 11 and are arranged in sequence at intervals along the long side of the support plate 11. The upper surface of the support plate 11 is provided with a sliding groove 111, and the sliding groove 111 extends along the long side of the support plate 11. The support plate 11 adopts a rectangular structure, and the cross-section of the sliding groove 111 adopts a hemispherical structure.

[0032] In this embodiment, the slide groove 111 is disposed in the middle of the upper surface of the support plate 11, and its axis is parallel to the long side of the support plate 11.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, the connector 2 includes a base plate 21 and a mounting plate 22. The lower surface of the base plate 21 is provided with a slider 211, which is adapted to the slide groove 111. Three support frames 1 are all supported on the lower surface of the base plate 21. The base plate 21 and the support frames 1 are detachably connected. The mounting plate 22 is inclinedly set on the upper surface of the base plate 21, and the photovoltaic module 3 is installed on the side away from the base plate 21. The slide groove 111 extends along the intersection line of the plane where the lower surface of the mounting plate 22 is located and the plane where the upper surface of the base plate 21 is located. The base plate 21 and the mounting plate 22 are both rectangular structures. The base plate 21 is set on the upper surface of the support plate 11, and the lower surface of the base plate 21 abuts and fits against the upper surface of the support plate 11. The three sliders 211 on the lower surface of the base plate 21 are respectively set in the three slide grooves 111, so that the base plate 21 can slide back and forth axially along the slide groove 111 relative to the support plate 11, thereby moving the photovoltaic panel to the designated position, avoiding manual handling, reducing installation time, and improving efficiency.

[0034] The mounting plate 22 has connecting plates 221 on both sides of its end surface. The upper surface of the connecting plates 221 is on the same plane as the upper surface of the mounting plate 22, and the two end faces are on the same plane as the two end faces of the mounting plate 22. The connecting plates 221 are connected to the two ends of the photovoltaic panel by multiple bolts, so that the photovoltaic panel is stably installed on the mounting plate 22.

[0035] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, multiple protruding plates 212 are provided on both sides of the two support plates 11 located at both ends. The multiple protruding plates 212 on both sides of the same support plate 11 correspond one-to-one. Each protruding plate 212 is equipped with a tightening bolt 4. One end of the tightening bolt 4 faces the support plate 11 and its axis is perpendicular to the side of the support plate 11. Specifically, the protruding plate 212 adopts a rectangular structure, with its upper surface set on the lower surface of the base plate 21. The side of the protruding plate 212 is parallel to the side of the support plate 11. The axis of the tightening bolt 4 is perpendicular to the side of both the protruding plate 212 and the support plate. Simultaneously, the top... A rubber plate 41 is provided on the end face of the tightening bolt 4 facing the support plate 11. When the base plate 21 is moved to the designated position, the tightening bolt 4 is tightened, so that one end of the tightening bolt 4 is pressed against the side of the support plate 11, thereby stabilizing the position of the base plate 21. Furthermore, if the position needs to be adjusted, it is only necessary to tighten the tightening bolt 4 and then slide the base plate 21 to adjust the position of the photovoltaic module 3 and the base plate 21, etc. This makes the position adjustment simple, time-saving, and efficient.

[0036] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5As shown, the upper surface of the base plate 21 is provided with a groove 213, which is adapted to the mounting plate 22. The groove 213 is opened along the extension direction of the vertical slide 111, and the slots at both ends of the groove 213 are respectively set on the end faces of both ends of the base plate 21. The front and rear sides of one end of the base plate 21 are connected to the opposite sides of one end of the groove 213 by a pivot, so that the mounting plate 22 can rotate relative to one end of the base plate 21. Thus, when the photovoltaic panel is installed, the mounting plate 22 can rotate into the groove 213, so that the mounting plate 22 is placed horizontally, and the photovoltaic panel can be installed on the mounting plate 22 in a relatively simple way.

[0037] When the mounting plate 22 rotates into the groove 213, the upper surface of the mounting plate 22 and the upper surface of the base plate 21 are on the same plane, and the connecting plate 221 is displaced into the groove 213.

[0038] In this embodiment, a support platform 214 is provided at the end of the groove 213 that is away from the mounting plate 22 and connected to the base plate 21. The support platform 214 has a rectangular structure, and the upper surface of the base plate 21 and the bottom wall surface of the groove 213 are parallel to the upper surface of the support platform 214. When the mounting plate 22 rotates into the storage groove 222, the upper surface of the support platform 214 abuts against and fits against the lower surface of the mounting plate 22, so that the mounting plate 22 is in a horizontal state when it is in the groove 213.

[0039] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the mounting plate 22 has multiple detachable diagonal braces 5 between its side facing the base plate 21 and the bottom wall of the groove 213. The mounting plate 22 also has multiple storage slots 222 adapted to the diagonal braces 5. One end of each diagonal brace 5 is connected to the opposite side wall of the storage slot 222 via a pivot. The other end of each diagonal brace 5 is detachable from the bottom of the groove 213. Specifically, the other end of each diagonal brace 5 has a stabilizing plate 51. The bottom wall of the groove 213 has multiple sets of connecting holes 215. The number of diagonal braces 5 is the same as that of the diagonal braces 5, and they are arranged sequentially at intervals along the direction of the two side walls of the vertical groove 213. The connecting hole group 215 includes two connecting holes 215a. The stabilizing plate 51 is provided with two connecting bolts 6. The diagonal braces 5 are bolted to the connecting holes 215a on the bottom wall of the groove 213 through the connecting bolts 6 of the stabilizing plate 51. This makes the position of the mounting plate 22 stable. When the mounting plate 22 is placed in the groove 213, the diagonal braces 5 can be stored in the storage groove 222, thereby avoiding the diagonal braces 5 from obstructing the storage of the mounting plate 22.

[0040] In this embodiment, when connecting and installing the photovoltaic module 3 and the support frame 1, the support frame 1 is first installed on the ground at a preset position. Then, the photovoltaic panel is installed on the mounting plate 22 placed in the water. Then, the base plate 21 is pushed so that the base plate 21 moves the mounting plate 22 and the photovoltaic panel to the designated position. Then, the top bolt 4 is tightened to fix it. After that, the above steps are repeated to complete the installation of the photovoltaic panel. If it is necessary to adjust the position or spacing of the photovoltaic panel, the top bolt 4 is loosened and the base plate 21 is slid to make the adjustment.
